It should be appreciated with great humility that nobody understands how the human brain really works. It is known that the brain is 90% phospholipid. However how those fats up there churn to generate the higher intellection functions such as memory, speech, insight, sight, thought and all the higher intellectual functions remains unknown. It is the great scientific challenge of the new millennium. Until it is understood when politicians, psychologists, professors, physicians and others impressed with their own credentials pontificate loudly on various methods to alter human thought, be skeptical and in general run.

God knows.

He designed it and built it.

We’ve known this for many decades...and, yet, so many doctors and nutritionists have been pounding the table about a low-fat diet. Geez, that goes a long way toward explaining why the Democrats are doing so well - dain bramage caused by inadequate fat intake.

My favorite brain book is “The Origin of Consciousness in the Breakdown of the Bicameral Mind.”
Anti-Darwinists will clutch their pearls over that one.

The second favorite is “The Divine Banquet of the Brain.”
It’s a compendium of psychiatric strangeness.
